Pop star Sabrina Carpenter has held onto the No. 1 spot on the Billboard 200 chart for a second week, despite a claim by Travis Scott’s label that he should have taken the top spot. The claim, made by Cactus Jack Records, alleges that a significant number of sales for the anniversary edition of Travis Scott’s “Days Before Rodeo” mixtape were not included in the final tabulation for the chart.

The letter, which went viral, calls the Billboard chart system “unreliable and incomplete,” asserting that the rapper was wrongfully robbed of the No. 1 debut.

However, Luminate, the company responsible for Billboard’s chart data, and Billboard itself have stated their confidence in the accuracy and methodology of their chart calculations.

This incident highlights a potential issue with the Billboard chart system, raising questions about the reliability of the data and potentially affecting the success of artists.

Meanwhile, Sabrina Carpenter’s album has garnered further attention due to a dedication she made to another artist, a gesture that has sparked curiosity and conversation amongst fans.
